CNN Money has a great graph out about the world's largest economies. In addition, you can go back a few years and move forward in time and see projections. This will be a great bell ringer in my AP Macroeconomics class as well as in my CP economics class when we get to that unit. I want students to make predictions on who will remain in which spots, and who might raise or fall and why.
I think it is interesting that Canada is projected to fall out of the top ten by 2020. With NAFTA and the oil sands, I do not see how, but it might be a great conservation to have.
